Jordan Electrics^h⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Robinson⁽³⁾| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 63

11/1

Best novice efforts would give him a chance here, but well held in both nurseries and, despite 5lb drop, has a bit to prove.

Form: 338440

Primeiro Boy¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63

7/1

Second to Lang Toun Lady over C&D (good) last time. Now 8lb better off for 2¾L, so looks a serious player this time.

Form: 550562

The Grey Zebedee^b⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 62

7/1

Best effort was when 1L second in a Newcastle novice event (6f) last month. Form has tailed off since then. 3lb drop won't harm but has a fair bit to prove now.

Lang Toun Lady^b¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: J Fanning| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 62| CD

3/1

C&D scorer last time by 2¼L from Primeiro Boy, with whom she is 8lb worse off today. Still going the right way, however, and certainly not ruled out in her follow up bid.

Form: 86931

Tick Tock Croc^b1⁴⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 60

6/1

Reasonable efforts on his last three starts, finishing fourth on his last two, including over C&D. 2lb lower than that nursery debut here and blinkers now tried. More needed.

Form: 70444

Northern Society¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 60

7/2

Went close over this trip at Ayr (good) last month, amid three decent nursery runs. Out of sorts last time, but if she can bounce back to her best then she would enter calculations.

Form: 632247

Popping Corks¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 57

20/1

Showed some early promise for Richard Hannon, but form tailing off and has now changed hands. Beaten 3L in a seller last time. Drops 3lb and would look reasonably attractive on some previous form, so not written off.

Form: 626574

(2)

Kemmeridge Bay¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 56

33/1

Took a significant step up on her previous runs at Redcar (5f, good to firm) recently. Initial mark looks fair based on that, it is whether she can back it up that is the question. If so, she could get competitive.

Form: 984

(5)

The Big House¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: N Wilson| OR: 56

6/1

Has recorded four fairly similar efforts and made the frame on his nursery debut over C&D last time. 2lb drop will help and he should be a contender again.

Form: 8983

Forecasts

Lang Toun Lady (3/1), Northern Society (7/2), The Big House (6/1), Tick Tock Croc (6/1), Primeiro Boy (7/1), The Grey Zebedee (7/1), Jordan Electrics (11/1), Popping Corks (20/1), Kemmeridge Bay (33/1), Liberty Diva (50/1)

Lang Toun Lady has claims again here after a C&D success last time, but preference is for PRIMEIRO BOY, who is taken to reverse placings with her now that he is 8lb better off. Tick Tock Croc is not ruled out, while a back-to-form Northern Society would also come into this. Kemmeridge Bay could improve further and have a say, while The Big House is also likely to be on the premises.
